How Information and Communication Technologies are used to assist learning
Social climate
Parent, student and teacher satisfaction with the school
At Our Lady of the Rosary Catholic School, we use Information, Communication and Learning Technology (ICLT) to enhance our school curriculum. All children from Prep to Year 7 have regular opportunities to use ICLTs to enhance their learning. This is an exciting and dynamic part of our school’s teaching and learning environment. OLR has recognized the importance of skilling children in the use of ICLTs and teaching children to be critical users of technology. The ultimate goal is to make learning as effective and engaging as possible for the children. Teachers do this by effectively integrating and embedding Information and Communication Learning Technologies across the Curriculum. With the help of ICLTs they develop effective strategies, flexible learning environments, model and promote inquiry, cooperative and independent learning in an intellectually challenging environment that can be applied across subject areas to meet the needs of all students.
Social Climate of the School In keeping with the Mission Statement OLR School provides opportunities for students to interact pastorally and socially as well as in the context of their curriculum work: • Buddy program • Student Council • Earth Charter Group • Dance Fever Virtues Program At OLR we use the Virtues to help make links between Jesus’ life and actions and our own lives and actions. Virtues are the silver thread running through all of humanity's sacred literature as well as the oral traditions of the world's indigenous peoples. We view children as spiritual beings whose purpose in life is to have a life of purpose - to develop the potential of all the virtues they have within them.
Our Lady of the Rosary uses a range of indicative data to inform school policy, procedures and practices. The School P&F and Board are consulted on many issues and play important roles in providing the Leadership Team with feedback. The School P&F and Board are responsible for overseeing parent and community surveys and questionnaires. This data is used to help set school goals and provide feedback to help establish and maintain the School Renewal Plan. P&F and Board meeting agendas and feedback also provide invaluable information about parent satisfaction. Please see the attached OLR Board and P&F Reports for 2010 below in the linked paper clips.
